I'm currently working on a small project. The first step is to pull tweets from given IDs using the twitter4j API. However, my issue is this error:

TweetCleaner.java:14: error: package twitter4j does not exist

whenever I attempt to compile my code from the command line:

javac -classpath twitter4j-core-4.0.4.jar MyProgram.java

The above command, however, does not do the trick.

I am using Eclipse and I've added the twitter4j jar files to my Libraries.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

If you want to pass additional resources from command line for the execution of your class you can use the following command:

java -cp 'MyProgram.jar:<twitter_jar_folder>/twitter4j.jar' main.Main

you can take a look at this question for more: Call "java -jar MyFile.jar" with additional classpath option

  • Don't you have to use the javac command first to compile your code? Also, I just want to make sure I follow. My class is called TweetCleaner. So the command I'd want to use is: > java -cp 'TweetCleaner.jar:/twitter4j.jar' TweetCleaner – Asher Mouat Mar 27 '16 at 13:56
